Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 5015322, member: 1969"] Under the non portal system, if there was problems with a player, or player/coach issues, both parties had additional incentive to work on resolving things. It wasn't easy for a player to leave... and it wasn't easy for a player to be replaced. So both parties would work harder at trying to resolve and rectify things. Now the understanding is if there are issues, you are likely gone, so that becomes the easy solution and easy way out for the player and/or sometimes the coach.. I'm in no way blaming Red here. There was a freshman from Canada at a mid-tier program this year (Fairfield maybe), who had great stats but it was rumoured he had apparently had multiple run-ins with his new coach that he did not like. And the team let him go in February, because they were probably certain as a productive freshman he would ask out pretty quickly. In the past both sides would have tried to work something out.
